Barking pub history index
A listing of historical public houses, Taverns, Inns, Beer Houses and Hotels in Essex. The Essex listing uses information from census, Trade Directories and History to add licensees, bar staff, Lodgers and Visitors.
In 1901, the licence for this pub moved to a larger building further down the street at No. 170 Gacoigne Road, where it remains today. *** The name is listed as The Volunteer in 1891, but this is presumably a confusion with the other pub of this name on the same street, which also appears in the 1891 census. The address is listed as 147 Fisher Street until 1901, which is a different site. *
